Painting canvas

I have been so busy the last couple months: teaching in Long Beach, preparing for QATV, teaching at Create, filling out proposals and contracts, that I have had no time to just make art for the love of it.

I still have a bunch of stuff on my to do list, but I just had to take a break and make some art to re energize myself before getting back to work preparing for teaching in Houston at IQF. So I pulled out the canvas I started in Alissa Burke’s class and had some fun! This is what it looked like before

I definately want to collage and paint more canvas like this, hopefully I will get to paint more before too much time passes.

Judy!I loved it when I saw it in Chicago, but wow!I love where you have taken it. The canvas has a very exuberant tone. Thanks for posting the progression of the piece. I just tried my hand at an ungessoed canvas yesterday. I decided to take Alisa’s online course because you inspired me. Take a peek at my blog, as there are shot progressive shots of the canvas.http://leslietuckerjenison@bloodspot.com/
